Howard Stern compares Kanye West to Hitler and calls him an "asshole"

Howard Stern rips Kanye West... comparing him to Adolf Hitler while calling on the rapper and his fans to use mental health as an excuse for his racist outbursts.

Howard didn't hold back on the latest episode of his SiriusXM radio show... referencing Kanye's recent interview with Chris Cuomo -- saying "you gotta hear this guy's bullshit".

The host was hesitant to give the rapper more energy...but makes a shockingly ironic comparison, saying "Kanye was a funny maniac. Now he's like Hitler."

He then poses this idea to Kanye: "If a newspaper article doesn't point out that you're some kind of designer or genius, maybe it's not because they're Jewish, but maybe -be just because they don't. I don't think too much about who you are and what your business is."
